Emergency kit to leave in car

This is an e-mail that my mom sent me as a list of emergency items that can pack into a 5-gallon bucket - most items can be bought at a dollar store or Walmart.
Mostly small stuff or compact - to be used when you have your car - not for wilderness backpacking.  Food and clothing is separate.  This is designed to be kept in the car as emergency get out.  Nothing perishable.
